HOW DO YOU DOWNTOWN?
The Arts District, 7+FIG, Chinatown, Bunker Hill, Olvera Street, the Fashion District, South Park...
Downtown Film Festival — L.A. is as multi-faceted as its namesake location. Plugging into the downtown vibe is easy. Just choose your muse below & let it be your guide:
Fiercely Independent
For fans of independent cinema, the choices are nearly unlimited with dozens of feature film & short film programs, screening on a daily basis at the AT&T Center venue's newly renovated 500-seat state-of-the-art theater.
Music Fan-atic
Classic
Hollywood icon Paul Newman will be honored on the 1st anniversary of his passing with back-to-back, outdoor screenings of two of his most celebrated films: Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid & Hud. It's all FREE!
Scene-ster
Yeah, baby! We hear you. It's a party every night - uh, make that two parties every night — at the 2009 Downtown Film Festival.
Green-ster
Green is more than good for the environment. It's also cool. Join the "living green, living great" crowd all-day & into-the-evening at Sustainable L.A. on Thursday, Aug. 20th at the festival's 7+FIG.
DayTripper
The Shorts & Sweets, August 17-21, is especially designed for commuters. Get a taste of the festival twice daily with a fascinating smorgasbord of short films & videos from around the world. Complimentary coffee & sweets! Mmmmm.
Avant-Garde / Artsy
Digital Art L.A. is a festival within a festival, an international showcase of digital and art videos.

Dear Friend:
The Downtown Film Festival — L.A. is just six weeks away! Very soon we'll begin sharing news on this year's Festival — which begins on August 12.
For now, we're very pleased to announce that DWELL magazine is one of the many fine organizations we're partnering with for our annual event, SUSTAINBLE L.A., this year. (This year's annual event will take place on August 20 at 7th & FIG, and it will be nothing short of the "green day" of the summer!)
More on that annual film/expo/panel program soon. For now, we thought you'd be interested in knowing about DWELL ON DESIGN, which promises to be an amazing event at the L.A. Convention Center this weekend. See you there!
Our best,
David Andrusia
Curator, SUSTAINBLE L.A. at Downtown Film Festival — Los Angeles
